International Business Management, 180 credits

The Programme

The impact of globalization is evident in the market place. Managers of tomorrow must be equipped to navigate the opportunities and threats created by an increasingly complex web of global competition and dependencies.

The International Business Management programme (IBM) aims to prepare you for the challenges of international business in the 21st century. It is a three year Bachelor’s programme that provides the basis for professional specialization in the area of economy and business administration. An integral part of the programme is close contacts with society, teachers and other students. You thus create your network for future business life already during your study years. You have great possibilities to participate in an exchange programme at a partner university in another country for one or two semesters. This will give you the opportunity to develop your intercultural and language skills. You can focus your studies on Accounting, Marketing, Management or Economics.

The learning activities include traditional lectures, but also require active participation in exercises, paper writing, presentations and discussions in seminars. The study programme also develops your personal skills concerning oral/written presentations, creativity, entrepreneurship, critical thinking, information searches, the assessment of material, and team work.

Employment and Future Prospects
